Overview of the Nidec Investigation
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a prominent national securities law firm, has commenced an investigation into Nidec Corporation (OTC NJDCY) following startling revelations related to improper accounting practices. The firm is reaching out to investors who have suffered significant losses in Nidec’s stock to explore potential legal avenues.
Background on Nidec Corporation
Founded in 1973, Nidec Corporation has established itself as a global leader in the manufacture of electric motors and related components. The company is integral to various industries, including automotive and consumer electronics, providing innovative solutions. However, recent developments have raised concerns about its managerial practices and the integrity of its financial reporting.
Uncovering the Accounting Irregularities
On September 3, 2025, Nidec announced the formation of a third-party committee tasked with investigating allegations of improper accounting within the company. This announcement was a turning point, revealing a potential breach of corporate governance and compliance.
The committee’s findings included multiple documents suggesting that Nidec’s management might have been involved in improper accounting activities. Specifically, it appeared that the company manipulated financial records, violating legal and ethical standards crucial for financial transparency.
As a direct result of these disclosures, Nidec’s stock plummeted by 16.5%, dropping to $4.11 per share on September 4, 2025, causing substantial losses for investors.
Continued Investigations and Stock Price Declines
Subsequent revelations on September 26 showed that the accounting irregularities extended further than initially thought. Nidec disclosed additional inappropriate practices, particularly concerning the reported values for customs purposes. This situation prompted another drop in stock price, falling 6.6% to $4.09 per share, compounding the distress among investors.
By October 23, 2025, Nidec's predicament worsened as the company announced it would retract its year-end forecast and cease surplus dividend payouts. This decision, made to address ongoing investigations, resulted in a staggering 25.4% drop in stock prices, closing at $3.43 per share.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange was also compelled to designate Nidec under a Special Security alert due to these ongoing issues. They noted significant deficiencies in the company’s internal management systems and a broader scope of the investigation which continued to expand.
